Among those noticeable by their absence were former multiple French champions and Champions League regulars Lyon, who crashed out on away goals to Romania's Astra Giurgiu. Spaniards' Real Sociedad also failed to cross the line.
Leading 1-0 after last week Real came unstuck 3-0 at Russian outfit Krasnodar. While Lyon missed out another French Ligue 1 side, former European heavyweights Saint-Etienne scraped past Turkey's Karabukspor on spot-kicks. Leicester City completed the signing of former Inter Milan midfielder Esteban Cambiasso on a free transfer.
Foxes boss Nigel Pearson persuaded former Argentina international Cambiasso, who had been without a club since being released by Inter at the end of last season, to move to English Premier League new-boys City despite interest from River Plate in his homeland.
